A new study from India just goes to show you that even using one ingredient from the Mediterranean diet can have several health benefits. According to a recent study conducted by the Diabetes Foundation India and the National Diabetes, Obesity & Cholesterol Foundation, Indians with metabolic problems experienced significant health benefits when they used olive pomace oil instead of other oils for their cooking (I reported about it in Olive Oil Times). This shows how incorporating certain components of the Mediterranean diet such as olive oil can provide some benefits. So make that first step today: get rid of all those other cooking oils and use olive oil.

Hi! Join me Elena Paravantes Greek-American Nutritionist and writer as I talk about the Greek-Mediterranean diet, Greek food, recipes and the latest research on one of the healthiest "diets" around. 








Olive Pomace oil does not give any health benefits and its a fact. Its being promoted in India by those who just wish to make money from the highly populated markets. Hope wise Indians wake up to the ‘dump’ being dumped on them. check the link below

Nikhil, Thank you for your comment. The study cited compares olive pomace oil to other oils that contained low levels of monounsaturated fats. Obviously pomace olive oil, apart from the monounsaturated fats does not have the health benefits of extra virgin olive oil.
I m using olive pomace oil does it have any adverse effect on health
Should I stop using it?? Or is it better than other oils like groundnut and sunflower that we get in the market??
Thanks for the article . Can you pls provide a link / details on the study conducted by the Diabetes Foundation India and the National Diabetes, Obesity & Cholesterol Foundation . This will be useful as I would like to switch over to olive pomace for daily consumption .
